1870-CC 25C VF35 PCGS. CAC. While the mintage figure of
8,340 pieces already suggests that the 1870-CC quarter is a rarity,
that number alone may not tell the whole story, since several
numismatic writers (among them Walter Breen and Rusty Goe) have
questioned whether part or nearly all of that production was
withheld from circulation. It is known that of those pieces which
escaped the Mint, most circulated heavily. The present coin, though
moderately worn, is actually upper-end for the issue. LIBERTY is
bold, and the deep gray surfaces have only one mentionable mark, a
pinscratch above Liberty's left (facing) leg. Population: 4 in 35,
7 finer (2/09).From The Belle Collection of Carson City Coinage.(Registry
